Description WARNING: LARGE FILE IS LONG/LARGE

This has been my recent process of art... I start with a wtf alien-like sketch (far left) then from there line/sketch what you can see in the middle, and then (I didn't save a process of flats), the final product is at the end, there. 

It is sketchy lines because I am too lazy for clean lineart. However, even when I do that, the sketches often look the same as they do above. Sometimes, I might toss a second layer, quite often a dark red or blue that will be for clothes and important details, like freckles, scars, etc. 
I've also started a new eye style, and I usually do the eyes first during lining/hard sketch phase, which is why they're completed already.

I hope to do another progress in the future showing flats... xD But I've also been doing more of a painting style recently, where everything is mostly done on one layer. =u=;; But that random mumbo jumbo aside, I am glad that you like it. ;u; I am quite proud of it myself~

Always so fulfilling to do eyes for some reason, though. Almost seems as if that's what makes the character, whether or not the rest is completed.

Eyes are my favorite feature of people. >u<;; Can just show so much about a person, so expressive~ I most always complete the first to see if they're going to work out- actually, I should say if the rest of the drawing will work out with it. xD

Ah, I see~ I usually color skin first, then eyes, then hair. But definitely makes things a whole lot clearer when eyes are there. I think if I did them first, I'd just quit at that point. =u=;;

I just love base things in general when it comes to coloring. Hair is so fun to make all smooth and flowy, while skin can be so defined and glows when using the right colors of lights and shades. >u<

Yes, things like blush/lip color can make quite a difference. @ u@

I just love coloring lips now. ;A; Especially when it's a more subtle, natural color over lipstick. Just fine to make them pop/glow, like it's lip gloss. But it instead gives it this very cutesy, perky feel.
